Eeeerrrrr tell me Miss Goody your talent is what exactly....
love it love it love it!!!!!!!!!!! Makes great telly, people watching.
What people don't get about it is that, whatever airs and graces, hopes and dreams they may have upon entering the house, what is remarkable is watching all the pretence being slowly stripped away the longer they stay there. They (in the main) get used to the cameras and forget they are there; even better.
